Brass steam
Posted by tatans on Saturday, May 28, 2011 7:52 PM

Just saw for sale a Sunset USRA  2-8-2 Mikado, mint, in box and sure is a classic for $247.00, seems to me to be a great price,  and it's guaranteed too !  Wondering if this was (is) available in plastic, what would be the cost?

I'm sure if I sold enough pop cans, I could afford this, and wouldn't  it be a great addition for that price to my modest  layout.

The Sunset USRA Heavy mikado H063H was erected in 1987,current price listed as $225 in Dan Glasers the brass guide....2009

While they used a little known builder Tae Hwa most of the Sunset steamers were good performers and at that price its going to be hard to beat.....git'r done!
